Charming area, with pedestrian zone you can wander around, many choices of cafes and restaurants you can stop by and interesting architecture with a mixture of old, grotesque and touches of modern designs! We spent a lot of time in the area, day and night!

the old town is made of contrasts: old buildings more than new buildings, lots of cafes and restaurants and the main contrast: when looking for the cafes&restaurants&co., you always look at the level of your eyes. look up and you get to discover a whole...More

Admittedly, we only had an overnight in Bucharest prior to leaving for our Transylvania trek so our tour of the city was brief. Perhaps if we'd had more time, we'd have discovered another layer. But first impressions are important too. The city struck me as...More

The Old Town district is a cobbled road area which is easy to walk around. The architecture is interesting and varied. There are lots of cafes and restaurants to choose from, most with outdoor seating where you can watch the world go by. We visited...More

Bucharest has a very interesting and thriving old town. People of all ages and types hang out there. Lots of restaurants. During the hours I was there we saw a bride getting her wedding pictures, extremely well dressed people from a party, churches, singing nuns,...More

Nice about what is called the old town is there are no cars. A relief after walking down the numerous boulevards in Bucharest. This part of the city has some old buildings like Hanul Manuc (looks like a caravanserai) and the Stavropoleos Monastery Church, but...More

Hi, I was in Romania a month ago and traveled extensively. Contrary to what has been posted here, you can do Bus trips from Bucharest to Bran. Most tours will take you to both Peles and Bran Castle. You should be able to book a tour from your hotel or, hostel or, other accommodation. I however, decided to travel to Brasov by train and, then took a bus onto Bran. Brasov is well worth visit with plenty to see. Bran offers a lot more than just the castle, as well, especially if you want to hike. Between Brasov and Bran is Rasnov, a fortress town that is worth the visit....again, with plenty of good mountain walking. These are beautiful areas of the country and interesting historically.

We pre-arranged a cab to collect us from the airport to our hotel, which is much safer and with very a good driver who gave us a commentary on where to go around Bucharest.
As for restaurants, we ate at the La Mama chain of restaurants, which was very reasonable and plenty of choice in their menu.
Excursions- visit Peles castle which was lovely in winter, do a tour to Brasov, also included is a trip to Dracula's castle
Have a good weekend..
